Eastern Europe is a geographical area populated mainly by ethnic Slavs, as well as other minorities. The music from this area shares a historical Slavic tradition from the time of Kievan Rus.
Note that no countries from Southeastern Europe and Central Europe have been included in the list below because their music is quite different from that of Eastern Europe. For example, Central European countries share a common history with each other, while Southeastern European music is more influenced by their common Ottoman and Byzantine history rather than the Slavic Eastern Europe. For the music of these countries, see Music of Southern Europe and Music of Central Europe.
The queen of the Eastern European music is said to be Ruslana (winner of Eurovision 2004 , named as Ukraine's national singer and People's artist from Ukraine , winner of a world music award in 2004 and also winner of various music festivals from Europe)
